Trouble Shooting
1. If you have trouble connecting the radio to your wireless network,
these steps may help to resolve the problem:
- Confirm that a Wi-Fi or Ethernet Wired connected PC can access the
internet (i.e. can browse the web) using the same network.
- Check that a DHCP server is available, or that you have configured a
static IP address on the radio.
- Check that you firewall is not blocking any outgoing ports.
- Some access points may be set so that only equipment with registered
MAC addresses can connect to them. This is one possible cause of
the Internet Radio being unable to connect to the Wi-Fi network, and
the Internet Radio display will show Bad ESSID or key. To overcome
this problem you will need to add the Internet Radio's MAC address to
the list of allowed equipment in your access point. The Internet
Radio's MAC address can be found using the menu <Information
Center ->System Information -> Wireless Info MAC address>. You
will need to refer to the guide for you Access Point in order to enter the
Internet Radio as an allowed piece of equipment.
- If you have an encrypted network, check that you have entered the
correct key or passphrase into the radio. Remember that text-format
keys are case sensitive.
- If your wireless network name(ESSID) is 'Hidden'(a setting on the
wireless access point), then you can either turn on the name, or you
can manually enter the name into the internet radio and media player,
Select <Configure -> Network -> Manual Configuration-> Wireless ->
Enter ESSID>. Confirm if the Network is encrypted, e.g. requires a
WEP or WPA key, then enter the network name.
2. If your radio can connect to the network successfully, but is unable
to play particular stations, it may be due to one of the following
reasons:
- The station is not broadcasting at this time of the day (remember it
may be located in a different time zone).
- The station has too many people trying to attach to the radio station
server and the server capacity is not large enough.
- The station has reached the maximum allowed number of
simultaneous listeners.
- The station is not broadcasting anymore.
- The link on the radio is out of date. This is updated automatically every
day, so the next time you turn on the link will be recognised.
- The internet connection between the server (often located in a
different country) and yours is slow. Some internet service providers
may fail to stream in certain geographical areas. Try using a PC to
play back the stream via the broadcaster's web site. If you can play
back the station with a PC, please report to the customer service
where you bought this radio. If you have a laptop, try connecting it if
your Internet Radio cannot find the station.
18

3. When you scan for PCs under UPnP function, none can be found, or
the PC you are looking for does not appear in the list:
- You have not connected to the wireless Access point. On the internet
radio, select 'Configuration', 'Network ', 'Wireless network
connection' and then select your Wireless network. (You may need to
enter a security key to access the network wirelessly).
- You have a firewall set on your PC which is stopping you accessing
shared files.
- If you have a third party firewall (Like Norton, or Zone Alarm) that will
have its own control panel and you will need to consult the manual for
your firewall.
- If your PC is connected to a managed network, with a server
sometimes the PC being searched for needs to be server Workgroup.
4. You can see the PC you want to play music from, but cannot find any
folders on the PC:
- You have a firewall running which is preventing the internet radio from
seeing the shared folder. As a quick check, you can disable firewalls
like Norton to see if this overcomes the problem, if this resolves the
issue then you can either leave the firewall off, or allow file sharing
through the fire wall.
Note: If you firewall is required to provide security for your
system, it should not be left off.
5. I can't share a folder , as the option is not highlighted:
The share folder option will not be available until you have turned simple
file sharing on. Run the wizard.
Scan Error:
When the internet radio is scanning the content of the folders on a PC, it
is possible that a scan error may occur if the windows file sharing
application times out. This is most likely to occur if both the PC with the
media content and the Internet Radio are connected wirelessly.
Try re-connecting the PC with the media content into the network via
cable. This will dramatically increase the speed at which the Internet
Radio is able to scan the content of the Media PC.
Playlists:
Some media ripping applications allow 'Playlists' to be created. The
Internet Radio is able to detect and stream these playlists, but they must
be stored in the folder with the rest of the Media content and they must
have the file extension.m3u.
Windows Media player can create suitable playlist, just select 'create
new playlist', drag and drop the tracks you want into the playlist, then
use 'Save as' to ensure the file type is .m3u. (Existing play lists can be
opened and re-saved in this format) When the Internet Radio detects
you have playlists, it will enable a new menu option allowing the playlist
to be selected and added to the queue.
If you re-connect to another PC of folder, which does not have any
Playlists in the .m3u. format, the playlist option will not be presented in
the menu.
